When a perfectionist like ZUK tells you that your thinking too hard, that is a sign.
The above is absolutely correct. I did mine as explained above following some of the tips mentioned and got great results as proven by the frame shop's

Thanks @47coeman. I have been following your thread for some time. Garage looks great, and the frame is perfection.
TNX for the complement, I took it up to Luke at 4x4 labs Friday to do a few final things in prep for the tub and the simple roll cage the guys are going to fab for me. Then bring it home and start assembly. I will be working the next 2 1/2 Months mainly to generate more $ to keep feeding this habit everything we do is big $ but I love it. Have been collecting parts for some time and I think I am pretty close to having most of the stuff.
All 3 options re ok but "Z" cut I am referring to option #2... you just don't want a straight verticle cut... they are weak. I went with option 2 when replacing the rusted out back half of my mini truck frame... it's held well and I've beat it to death being in a crawler chassis...

Jack stands came in. very unimpressive. They should work for what I want to do; however, I will be watching for something better.
I like screw jacks for frame work... more adjustable...
If you want a hand, I live just down the road in Louisburg, and can come lend some help if needed, I work a lot but just holler and I'll make the time
Any updates to post !!!
